Treatment Decision Making and Achieving Therapeutic Goals in Multiple Sclerosis: Individual and Systems-Level Advances: Current Views of the Pathophysiology and Immunopathogenesis of MS

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

The increasing understanding of the immunopathogenesis of MS and the greater availability of disease-modifying therapies (DMTs) have shifted the aims of treatment. Modification of therapies is increasingly common in the context of growing knowledge of MS pathophysiology and DMT mechanisms of action. Education is needed to reformulate treatment strategies on the individual and systems levels.

Goals (Purpose) of Program
Healthcare providers who complete this activity should be able to effectively communicate and foster understanding of the disease process and the mechanism of action of DMTs with their patients.
